The Shenandoah Telecommunications Co stock price gained 0.88% on the last trading day (Friday, 17th May 2024), rising from $18.16 to $18.32. It has now gained 5 days in a row.

Volume fell on the last day by -66 thousand shares and in total, 117 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $2.14 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

SHEN Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Shenandoah Telecommunications Co stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $17.53 and $15.29. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 30, 2024, and so far it has risen 42.90%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Shenandoah Telecommunications Co stock
Shenandoah Telecommunications Co finds support from accumulated volume at $17.60 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
This stock may move very much during the day (volatility) and with a very large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "very high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $0.310 between high and low, or 1.72%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.63%.
The Shenandoah Telecommunications Co stock is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some stocks may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the stock manages to break the trend before that occurs.
Our recommended stop-loss: $17.82 (-2.74%) (This stock has very high daily movements and this gives very high risk. The RSI14 is 88 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 13 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (SHEN) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 20th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect Shenandoah Telecommunications Co to open at $18.25, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $17.63 and $19.01, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.688 (+/-3.76%) up or down from last closing price. If Shenandoah Telecommunications Co takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.52% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $18.77 (2.46%) than the support at $17.60 (3.93%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
Is Shenandoah Telecommunications Co stock A Buy?
Several short-term signals are positive, despite the stock being in a falling trend, we conclude that the current level may hold a buying opportunity as there is a fair chance for stock to perform well in the short-term.
